Application filed November 19, 1907. Serial No. 402,894.

' To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLY WENZEL, a subject of the German Emperor,residing at Prinzessinnenstrasse, Berlin, Germany, have invented acertain new and useful Machine-Support, of which the following is aspecification.

The present invention relates to a sound lowering support for the feetof machines which does not transmit the shocks caused e. g. by a sewingmachine to the floor.

The support consists of a lower metal plate mounted on small rubberplates and of an upper plate connected to the same by pins and spiralsprings. The foot of the machine rests on the upper plate which forms anelastic support for the same.

In the accompanying drawing in which I have illustrated my inventionlike letters of reference refer to like parts throughout the differentviews.

In said drawing, Figure 1 shows a plan view of the support. Fig. 2 showsa crosssection according .to lines AA. Fig. 3 shows also a plan view ofthe support but of another form of construction.

The support consists of two metal plates a, b which are movablyconnected with each other by pins 0. Spiral sprin s d are mounted aroundthe pins screwe into the lower plate I) and keep the plates apart.

The lower plate provides on its bottom several e. 9. four small rubber.plates e, while the upper plate carries a plate like border 7 for thefoot of the machine. I preferably provide the upper plate with a slot 2in order to give the foot roller of the machine a better support while Iform the border f corresponding to the shape of the foot of themachine.-

The shocks of the working machine are equalized by the elasticallymounted upper plate while the rubber plates underneath of the lowerplate serve to overcome such shocks which eventually may be stilltransmitted to said lower late. The rubber plates simultaneously 0 er tothe machine a fixed but elastic support.

What I claim as new and desire to secure v by a United States LettersPatent is A machine stand comprising a lower plate 7 ILL-Y WENZEL-Witnesses HENRY HABPER,
